W is for Chris White, Poet and Illustrator, #AtoZChallenge #ZtoA

Chris White is a writer, illustrator and performance poet. Those are his illustrations at the top! He has had many poetry and story books published since his first; Bitey the Veggie Vampire in 2000. As well as scribbling pictures to accompany his own work, Chris illustrates for other authors too. He has appeared at many festivals (I saw him at Edinburgh!), toured the world with his performances and workshops, and had his poems and pictures broadcast on BBC TV and radio. (And he has kindly drawn a cartoon of me, with Lola, that sometimes appears around the blog!). Chris’ website is here, for booking details.

I’ve never heard of him before – but his poetry is very clever and I bet the kids love him. I’m also impressed that you’re doing the challenge backwards so that all your post will be in order after this. I’ve noticed my pinterest board has them all back the front – messes with my OCD head!
